Types

Notable Gun Puppies

Strategy

• Gun Puppy:
  • Always shoots at least one shot in the direction of the player. Quite predictable and easy to kill if alone; increased difficulty when other gun puppies or monsters accompany it.
  • If you are with a party, an effective (though time consuming) strategy is to use one player to shield and another to shoot. As long as the shooter stands right behind the shielder, they are protected by the shield. Retreat when the shield weakens, either switch jobs or wait till shield has recharged.
  • Freeze will prevent them from turning around, and Shock will make them shoot slightly inaccurately.

• Red Rover:
  • Throws flames followed by a heat wave towards the nearest player.

• Rocket Puppy:
  • Launches rockets that home in on a player. The rockets have the added effect of damaging other monsters as well as knights.
